Around the Area

Neighborhoods encompassed in northeast Louisville include Lyndon, Anchorage, Springhurst, Brownsboro, Prospect, Glenview, and Norton Commons. With some of the highest per-capita income in Louisville as well as the state of Kentucky, beautiful homes and scenic views pair with the convenience of being within a city. The towns of Lyndon and Anchorage, while within Louisville, remain independent with their own mayors and emergency services. In addition, Anchorage has its own school system separate from Jefferson County Public Schools. Close to the neighborhood of St. Matthews, both Lyndon and Anchorage are close to Louisville’s two largest malls - Mall St. Matthews and Oxmoor Center. In addition to proximity to the major economic center of St. Matthews, Lyndon houses the global headquarters of UPS Airlines

Next to Lyndon is Anchorage, a beautiful town close to Oldham County. Anchorage’s most famous resident, Papa John’s founder John Schnatter, has restored many of the city’s historic buildings in the city center – including some on the National Register of Historic Places.

Along Westport Road lies the neighborhood of Springhurst, a development combining residential, retail and office buildings. Close by is a stretch of Brownsboro Road that includes the popular outdoor Paddock Shops (many locals still call it by its previous name, “The Summit”). Patrons can enjoy high-end retailers coupled with close parking and pleasant strolls on pretty days. The Paddock Shops hosts a summer concert series and art fair. Norton Commons neighbors Brownsboro as a traditional neighborhood development with beautiful architecture and many amenities all within walking distance. The neighborhood, designed to feel and operate like a small town, includes schools, churches, parks and businesses.

Farther north lies the cities of Prospect and Glenview. Bordering Oldham County, Prospect maintains an independent status while also being part of the city of Louisville. With a large amount of rural areas, Prospect and Oldham County’s town of Goshen are known for horse farms and high-end subdivisions.
